Well that was unsettling. Took me four days to come down from this movie and land in a safe enough place to be able to think about it again to write a review.

Greg, you're probably right and it was intentional. Everyone is talking about Toni Collette's performance. How it might even have Oscar potential. i agree that she's near-perfect, but for some strange reason Gabriel Byrne's subtle performance hit me far harder. This control-freak borderline-OCD father who is supposed to have his household in relative control. So watching him try to hang on to sense and control... i found you could really feel it. When he starts no longer reminding people to take off their shoes when they come in, you start to realize in his own way he;s coming apart as well and is becoming vulnerable as well.
man... i just loved him in this. But if I talk about him too much, then I feel i am underselling Toni Collette which I don't want to do. I didn't the boy was anything special. For me it was all about the parents.
and the cinematographer.... keeping a focus on a pole on the side of the road... stuff like that. It's almost a performance in itself. Yikes.
